Room 5 at 46 Geddington road – To Let – £425 pcm – A Well-Connected Room Rental for a Single Professional

An introduction to the home

For a professional looking to rent in Peterborough, the right room needs to offer more than somewhere to sleep. Having enough space to work, useful furniture, shared areas to relax in and straightforward monthly costs can make shared living that much easier.

Room 5 at 46 Geddington Road offers exactly that balance.

Positioned on the second floor of a well-equipped shared HMO, Room 5 is a furnished double room with its own desk and storage, alongside access to a communal kitchen, lounge/diner, bathroom, utility room and rear garden. Gas, electricity, water, council tax and broadband are also included within the monthly rent.

The layout and living space

Room 5 is positioned on the second floor and is finished with cream walls and cream carpet. A window overlooks the front of the property and brings natural light into the room.

The room is furnished with a double bed, two bedside tables, a desk, wardrobe and chest of drawers, giving you a useful balance of sleeping, storage and workspace without needing to furnish the room yourself.

The shared kitchen is fitted with two large fridge freezers, a five-ring gas hob with extractor, electric oven, microwave, dishwasher and stainless-steel sink, together with the usual storage and preparation space expected within a shared home.

The lounge/diner provides a separate communal area with two sofas, a television and dining table with chairs. Windows to the front and rear bring natural light into the room, while a fire surround with gas fire creates a central feature.

The property also has a shared bathroom fitted with a bath and shower over, WC and hand basin, together with a separate ground-floor cloakroom.

A utility room provides additional practicality with a washing machine and stainless-steel sink and also gives access through the rear entrance to the garden.

For a professional renter, the layout works well because your bedroom remains your own private space while the kitchen, lounge, utility and garden provide additional areas for everyday living.

Outdoor space made convenient

The property also provides access to a shared rear garden.

The garden is mainly laid to lawn and gives residents an outdoor area to use during the warmer months. A side gate provides access towards the parking area, while the utility room gives direct access from inside the property.

To the front, the property is mainly laid to lawn with a hedge border and pathway leading towards the entrance.

For a room rental, having access to a garden gives you somewhere outside the bedroom and communal lounge to sit, get some fresh air or enjoy better weather.
